Chapter 130: Cliff Passage
Yan Bing was shocked by this powerful impact and flew out, and she sat on the ground for a long time and couldn't come back to her senses, she was scared stupid.
If Xu Ning hadn't reacted fast enough just now, he would have been killed by an arrow from the "Heavenly Bow".
The incomparably hard ground rock cracked, and a small hole was shot out of the place where Xu Ning was meditating just now, which was really thrilling, and he was almost about to die of joy.
Xu Ning shook his head and walked slowly to her, just about to count a few words, and saw her eyes dazed after being frightened, it was really pitiful, his heart softened, and his voice softened: "Bing'er, it's okay, am I okay?" ”
Yan Bing raised her head at this time, her mouth twitched, and she couldn't speak, Xu Ning's eyes were clear and full of tears when she looked at her.
Her face was stained with a lot of dust, Xu Ning squatted down and was about to wipe her clean with her cuffs, Yan Bing threw herself into his arms and cried "wow", and he didn't know what he was talking about.
Xu Ning made her cry for a while, and then asked with a smile: "Have you cried enough?" ”
Yan Bing buried his head in his arms and nodded.
Xu Ning said again: "Then hurry up, my meridians were shaken just now, and I want to breathe immediately." ”
Yan Bing raised his head at this time, his face was full of tears, and he was in a mess when he intersected with the dirt.
Xu Ning helped her gently wipe off the stains on her face, looked at her slightly red and swollen eyes, and sighed: "Alas, you want to cry when you are happy, and you have to cry when you are sad, and you still have to cry if you do something wrong." ”
When Yan Bing heard him say this, he laughed again: "Didn't you say that women are made of water?" ”
She grabbed the Heavenly Domain Bow from the ground again, bit her silver teeth, and said fiercely: "It's all you who made me almost kill Brother Xu Ning, and I'm going to break you into ten thousand pieces!" ”
After saying this, she raised her arms, clearly intending to throw the Celestial Bow into the deep ravine magma below.
Xu Ning grabbed her and said angrily: "You scared you stupidly, this is a peerless divine soldier who is not in the world, don't destroy the heavens, keep it well, and you won't be afraid of any powerful demons and monsters." ”
Yan Bing came to his senses, held the Tianyu Bow tightly in his hand, and thought that with this extremely powerful weapon, if Brother Xu Ning encountered any danger below, he would definitely be able to help a lot.
Xu Ning saw that she was fine, so she sat down again and concentrated on meditation and pranayama.
Yan Bing was bored for a while, and couldn't help but become interested in the shriveled corpse, seeing that he was wearing a helmet and armor on his head, which was very different from the previous ones, she Bing Xue was smart enough to connect some of the stories she heard, and muttered: "You have long lost your soul, and you can't be at peace with this body." ”
She pulled the body to the edge of the cliff and pushed it down, folded her hands together, and looked solemn. He pushed the other corpses on the ground, along with the other ones, into the flames below, and then walked back sweating profusely.
Xu Ning gradually recovered, and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing here?" ”
Yan Bing's expression was gloomy, and he sighed: "Our ancient people originally had a tradition of cremation, and I also let their bones return to the flames and no longer be disturbed. ”
Only then did Xu Ning understand that these terrifying zombie-looking people just now turned out to be the shells of the ancient people, and they were obviously controlled by the demon magician, and the armored warrior holding the Tianyu bow just now must be a person with a very high status.
From Yan Bing's mouth, he learned that he was the leader of the underground ancient city of that generation.
couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that the king of the underground wants to obtain an immortal body, but I never thought that he would later become a marionette in the hands of others, a walking corpse driven by people, sad and lamentable." ”
Yan Bing was also embarrassed, threw the horn bow and the sac into the ravine below, only holding the silver-white Tianyu bow in his hand, followed behind Xu Ning, and continued to move forward, since there was a zombie man here just now, then there must be some connecting channel.
As the Fire Flow Waterfall got closer and closer, the air seemed to be thinner, but fortunately, the bottle of "Concentration Dew" that Yan Bing carried with him could make his breathing a lot easier, and now the fire was already shining around him, like daylight.
The two walked along the cliff for a long time, Xu Ning secretly exclaimed, this underground ancient city is clearly like another world, and there are caves in the caves, if there is no parchment drawing of the underground ancient city, where can I get out of this labyrinth.
"Can't get any closer." Yan Bing exhaled and said, "I can't stand the heat anymore, and if I leave again, my skin will be scorched." ”
She was drenched in sweat, her clothes were tightly clinging to her delicate body, and the firelight shone on her face, which was flushed.
Xu Ning also felt that his face was faintly hot and hot, but all the way, there were strange rocks and craggy stone walls without seeing any exits, and there was a heat wave and a torrent of flames in front of him.
Yan Bing was also a little worried, and took the drawings out of his arms, and now the light was excellent and he could see clearly.
Xu Ning saw that her brows were furrowed, her face was solemn, she didn't speak for a long time, and she didn't dare to disturb her, so she had to be secretly anxious.
"This route is obviously pointing here, and it is not wrong." Yan Bing pouted and said, "It's just that the line is in the cave, and it seems that there is no other exit." ”
"No more exits?" Xu Ning was surprised, "But although this cave is big, there is nothing to hide, if the 'Soul Searching Furnace' is here, it would have already been seen." ”
Yan Bing pointed to a circle in the map and said: "This is the abyss ravine under our feet, and the line is broken here......" She paused here, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said, "Huh" and said: "Could it be that the exit is under the abyss under our feet?" ”
Xu Ning walked to the edge of the cliff, squatted down and looked down at the huge pit, but saw that the green mist was rolling thousands of feet below, like a sea of clouds surging and surging, and there was molten fire in the ground through the smoke, not orange light flashing. The sides of the pit are also the same as the stone walls above, and there are strange rocks, but there is nothing unusual to see.
If this giant pit is the exit, as Yan Bing said, then you must be able to see something that can be used to climb down, but at least there is nothing as far as the eye can see now.
"It's hard for apes to climb down, so how can we go down to the depths to find a way?" Xu Ning stood up and shook his head.
"But how did those ancient warriors who turned into zombies appear here just now, this cave is so hot, it is not suitable for demons to breed and hide, in my opinion, we still follow the edge of the cliff and carefully search, I don't believe we can't find any clues."
After Yan Bing said this, her temper came up, and she pulled Xu Ning back, this time focusing her eyes on the rock wall under the pit, and went all the way back to the place where she got the Heavenly Bow, still disappointed that she had found nothing.
This place is so huge, it is absolutely impossible to search for it all without a day or two, and it is another matter whether you can find it or not.
Yan Bing sat down, opened the space in the ring, found a few dried fruits and slowly nibbled them. Xu Ning also slowly discovered that when she was bored or bored, she would find something to eat.
"If you want me to see, this group of zombies must have popped up around here......" Xu Ning said as if talking to himself, since he stayed with Yan Bing, he rarely had an opinion, and he basically didn't need it.
"How so?" Yan Bing chewed the dried fruit in his mouth and asked casually.
Xu Ning squatted down in front of her and said, "It's very simple, if they want to ambush us, they will naturally choose those plank roads in front of us, taking advantage of our unstable foothold." So, so I think the zombies just came out of here, and they just happened to see us and started firing arrows......"
Yan Bing nodded and said approvingly: "Your analysis is not unreasonable, let's look around here again." ”
The two of them looked separately, and within a few steps, Yan Bing found something, and beckoned Xu Ning to come over.
Xu Li was pleasantly surprised, ran over and looked in the direction of Yan Bing's finger, and sure enough, two or three hundred meters under his feet, the color of a stone was slightly different, as if there was some light pouring out, but this light was extremely dim, and it was difficult to find if you didn't pay attention to it.
He stabilized his excited mood and said, "I'll go down and see if it's a secret passage for the exit, you wait here first." ”
Yan Bing agreed, and ordered: "You must be careful, under this abyss, there are all magma heat currents that can dissolve steel!" ”
She regretted it again: "I knew that I would bring an extra silk thread, so I could tie it to you with multiple insurances." ”
Xu Ning said with a smile: "This is only three or four hundred meters, it seems to be very dangerous, but in fact, it is not difficult for me, I just need to be careful." ”
After he said this, the person had already climbed down, just as Xu Ning said, as long as the rock wall was hard enough to absorb his body, there would be no danger. Xu Ning didn't dare to rashly use the spiral disc snake body method to descend quickly, but learned Yan Bing's climbing skills, and slowly climbed down with the palm of his hand as a suction cup.
I don't know how deep this huge crater is, so I don't feel that there is any unbearable heat, and after going down to a hundred meters, I feel cool, and I don't know where the cold air comes from to fill it.
Xu Ning climbed on the cliff of this huge gambling cliff, like an ant.
When I went down to about 300 meters, I found an exit, and there was a dim light shining through, and I couldn't see it really in a daze, and I saw that the entrance to the cave was smooth and flat, different from the rough rock on the side, which was dug out by people.
To open such a passage on the cliff of this thousands of feet of cliff is not only difficult and dangerous, but also requires extremely high skill to do it.
Xu Ning was about to go in to determine whether this corridor was going through to other places, when a strong evil wind blew out from it, this evil wind was very violent, and his body trembled without defense and almost fell off, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Since the wind blows out, it must be unimpeded. So he stabilized his body and climbed back again, he didn't dare to let Yan Bing come down alone, although her climbing skills were more skilled than Xu Ning's, but she was always too far behind in cultivation, and if she made a mistake, she couldn't react like him to make the following temporary remedial responses.
Sure enough, Yan Bing, who is usually as agile as a civet cat, trembled in front of this blazing deep ravine, and finally went down to the entrance of the cave, and he was already shocked into a cold sweat, sitting in the cave and covering his chest and gasping.
The yin atmosphere inside is terrifying, and the strong wind blows from time to time, forming an echo in the passage like a ghost crying wolf, which is very weird.
Xu Ning led the way in front, Yan Bing followed closely with a silver longbow in his hand, in addition to the wind blocking, the road was very straight and spacious, and it was not difficult to walk, and he did not encounter any zombie monsters, all the way to the end, there was a rock wall in front of him, but there was a road that continued to extend to the lower left.
The two of them turned left and continued to walk, and walked a long way underground, the road became more and more slanted, and the original faint light disappeared again, and it was pitch black everywhere.
In the end, the two of them landed in a soft muddy sand, and it turned out that they had walked into an empty pit.
